Balayya Spends 12 Hours With Buddhist Gurus

Nandamuri Balakrishna is leaving no stone unturned to make his landmark film, Gautamiputra Satakarni, a special film in his career-ever. In order to understand well about the Telugu warrior Satakarni who ruled Amaravati & several other parts of India, Balakrishna along with director Krish have met over 10 to 12 Buddhist Gurus at Balayya’s home recently where they discussed for over 12 hours on various issues.

Perfectionist Balayya is paying attention to even minute details. The actor and director duo is doing extensive research on Satakarna. Since Balayya has good taste & interest in history, mythology, he’s putting special interest in the film.

Meanwhile, the film will be officially launched on April 22 in Annapurna Studios on grand note. It may be recalled that the film was formally announced in Amaravati on April 8th on the eve of Ugadi. It’s been confirmed that yesteryear actress ‘Dream Girl’ Hema Malini will play ‘Rajamatha Gautami’ role. While there’re several names doing the rounds for heroine opposite Balayya in the film, it’s learnt that no one is finalised yet for the lead lady.
